1-wwf... I K' Kee.64u,e4w7feeam?9mw The last week in August Mark Kirk- ham toured Faris, France, with his grandparents. He stayed at the LeR- oche Hotel. He said, lt was humun- gous. I felt that I was in a palace, a dream world. People attended me like I was actual royalty. Mark did not seem to have enough superlatives to describe the food. He said, They had extraordinary, deli- cious and unbelievable breakfasts which were called Continental break- fasts. Mark said that many of the worlds cultures are evident in Paris. He vis- ited a place that is similar to our Chin- atowns here in the United States. Also, he frequented little stores where Mexico, Italy, and Jamaica. These stores are found grouped together in one section of Paris. Traveling around Paris is very diffi- cult. Mark said that the traffic signs were confusing. lt's complicated there unless you live there. Also the traffic is bad because the cars are bumper to bumper over there. For them it's a normal pace of driving. He said. One time when a car wasn't available, he rode in a horse drawn carriage. One of the best things about Paris for Mark was the music he heard ev- when he awakened. 'Fam ' ery morning Mostly violin and flutes were playing. He said, lt sounded beautiful. he could buy gifts from such places as I Left: In the summer of 1985, Stacy Klein rafted down the rapids ofthe ' Athabaska River. This ride down the Canadian rapids lasted about five hours. Stacy said, Some of those rapids were six feet high!

Ronda as worked every summer ince the seventh grade to af- ord this trip. Snorkeling was ne of the most exciting ad- entures Ronda said she has ver experienced. Fish food as thrown around the snor- elers to make the fish attack. 'lt was the scariest feeling aving all those fish swim- ing so close, she said. Another interesting adven- ure was her ride down the long and winding road to Hanna to see the seven sacred pools. The pools are made by water falls which are flowing downward from the moun- tains to the ocean. While in Hawaii, Ronda learned how to hoola dance. She was impressed that every movement in the dance has a meaning. About her trip Ronda said, I spent ten beautiful days where the beaches are white and the oceans are clear blue. 3? 92 Last July, Jesse James, a Junior, flew to France for a month of international study. Because of his outstanding academic achievements, Jes- se was awarded a scholarship by the school and the Interna- tional Studies Association. Jesse was nominated by Mrs. Alba Clay, his French teacher. Jesse was based at the Uni- versiti de Caen for three weeks where he studied the French language and civiliza- tion. Students took side trips to the Palace at Versailles, the ancient castles in the Chateau Region, and Normandy Beach. While touring such places as the Sorbonne, the Eiffle Tower, the Sacre Couer Church, and the Louvre Muse- um in Paris, the instructors ex- plained the unusual architec- ture to the students. Jesse said he especially remem- bered the flying buttresses on the Notre Dam Cathedral. The Europeans, Jesse said, are not as modernized as we are. But when it comes to culture, it seems like Ameri- cans aren't taught anything about the world. Whereas, the Europeans understand West- ern history because the histo- ry is with them.
